Brown Wins Berwick Race V 6 - Finishes Ahead of Les Pawson by Drive Down Stretch; Karns Wins Every one has his idea on what ???ideal??? weather is and when it comes to ideal racing weather for Berwick, Ellison ???Tarzan??? Brown, the dusky Narragansett Indian who won the thirty-first renewal of the nationally famous event yesterday, will tell you that conditions were ideal. To those who stood in snow amid freezing temperatures and were buffetted by chill winds with evident discomfort, there was little of the ???ideal??? evidence as to weather but out on the course the little fellow from New England found it to his liking. Four times has ???Tarzan??? been to Berwick and only twice has he been up in the select four, the fellows who carry away the diamond rings. He placed third in 1938 when he ran in a driving snow storm and he won yesterday over a course made hazardous by snow, rain and over a highway under construction. Maybe when you stop to realize that back just a year ago when ???Tarzan ??? running under conditions generally regarded as the best, couldn???t even finish, you can better get his viewpoint on why snow and ice are his dish over the rugged Berwick marathon course of nine and a quarter miles that has dashed to pieces the hopes of many of the greatest in distance running history , ???
